The 2010–11 season was the 61st season in which Crawley Town played senior football, and their seventh in the Football Conference. On 1 July 2010, following a number of signings, the club held a press conference to declare their intentions for the coming season. They confirmed that the club had cleared £1,000,000 of debt and was now debt-free, and that Bruce Winfield has bought the shareholding formerly held by the Prospect Estates group. On 9 April, Crawley won the Conference National, beating Tamworth 3–0, and by doing this they will be a Football League club for the first time in their history.

Season summary

Prior to the beginning of the season, the club spent around £600,000 on players, signing the likes of Matt Tubbs from Salisbury City, Sergio Torres from Peterborough United and Richard Brodie from York City for a non-league record fee, financed in part by anonymous Far Eastern investors.{{Cite news |last=Conn |first=David |date=18 February 2011 |title=Ownership doubts threaten to ruin romance of Crawley Town's FA Cup tie |language=en |work=The Guardian |url=http://www.theguardian.com/football/david-conn-inside-sport-blog/2011/feb/18/crawley-town-manchester-united-fa-cup |access-date=8 August 2020}}{{Cite news |date=23 June 2020 |title=When Crawley Town succeeded in 'Project Promotion' |language=en-GB |work=The Non-League Paper |url=https://www.thenonleaguefootballpaper.com/features/30880/when-crawley-town-succeeded-in-project-promotion/ |access-date=8 August 2020}} The club saw success in the league losing just thrice all season before being promoted to the Football League for the first time in their history on 9 April 2011 following a 3–0 victory away to Tamworth.{{Cite news |last=Jackson |first=Jamie |date=9 April 2011 |title=Crawley Town achieve Football League status to match their millions |language=en-GB |work=The Guardian |url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2011/apr/09/crawley-town-football-league-finances |access-date=8 August 2020 |issn=0261-3077}}{{Cite web |date=9 April 2011 |title=Tamworth 0–3 Crawley Town |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/eng_conf/9451168.stm |access-date=8 August 2020 |website=BBC Sport |language=en-GB}} They finished top of the league on 105 points, a division record.

In 2017, football magazine FourFourTwo rated the Crawley Town team of the 2010–11 season the 21st most hated team of all time in British football, as a result of the club's significant financial backing and their unpopular manager Steve Evans, who was found guilty of tax evasion at his previous club Boston United.{{Cite web |last=Lea |first=Greg |date=12 April 2017 |title=Ranked!
